Hi McKinnie, just wanted to say hello and to wish you well for your further tests. Waiting for results is like nothing else, incredibly stressful - I hope you get encouraging news soon.
Hello and thanks for your post
Some people worry about cancer when they have been referred for another x ray but there is often a less serious cause such as an infection or scar tissue. Easier said than done, but try not to worry too much.
If the xray does not give any further information your doctors may recommend you to have a scan which will hopefully give a much clearer picture of what is going on.
I know waiting when you are worried is stressful, but hopefully you'll know more soon. Give us a ring if you want to talk any of this over. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
Kind regards,
Celene
Thank you so much that has calmed me now . Fingers crossed its nothing but I know if it's not I can get support on here xx
